ChainThink reports, according to The Information, citing sources, on the day SpaceX completed its $60 billion acquisition of Cursor, Musk addressed the entire Cursor team for the first time.
He admitted that Grok is lagging behind competitors, stating he is "not used to losing," and asked Cursor to help SpaceXAI catch up as soon as possible. Musk rare praised his rival, saying Anthropic is leading in AI and is a strong competitor.
He also believes that AI will eventually become so powerful that humans will be unable to control it, so SpaceXAI must achieve technological breakthroughs before other companies do. Following the acquisition, Cursor employees have begun integrating into various SpaceXAI teams.
Cursor CEO Michael Truell reports directly to Musk, and the two co-founders have joined the pre-training and machine learning teams, respectively.
Cursor's official team previously confirmed the completion of the acquisition, stating that both parties will collaborate to advance products such as Grok and Cursor.
